Name: Festo 535972 Air solenoid valve MFH-5/3G-D-1-S-C-EX
Brand: Festo

Air solenoid valve MFH-5/3G-D-1-S-C-EX

The Festo part number 535972 is a 42 mm wide electrical 5/3-way closed piston gate valve featuring a mechanical spring reset and a normal nominal flow rate of 1200 l/min normalized to DIN 1343. Operating within a pressure range of -0.09 MPa to 1.6 MPa, this IP65-rated component utilizes a sub-base size 1 according to ISO 5599-1 or G1/4 pneumatic working port and requires a separately ordered solenoid coil for operating voltage. Certified for hazardous locations with ATEX category II 2G for gas and II 2D for dust, it carries Ex h IIC T4 Gb and Ex h IIIC T105°C Db ignition protection for an explosive ambient temperature range of -5°C to +40°C, alongside UKCA and international EPL Gb and EPL Db certifications.

Why no listed price?

Industrial and obsolete parts are priced per enquiry: the final price depends on available stock, condition, quantity, and your delivery destination, so a fixed list price would be misleading.
